Once Independence Day has come and gone, there’s a bit of holiday lull for a while. On one hand, the advantage to this is that we get to save some money. Holidays have a habit of getting expensive, and it’s good to let the old bank account recover! But on the other hand, it’s always nice to have a fun holiday to look forward to, and knowing the next one is in the distant future can be disheartening. And that is precisely why we think it’s so much fun to celebrate those much smaller holidays that no one ever heard of before the internet!

Did you know there’s a National Bird Day, National Chip and Dip Day, Step in a Puddle and Splash Your Friends Day, and even a Reach as High as You Can Day? All these, and countless more, have been imagined up and posted all over the internet for all who may wish to celebrate them! With hundreds, if not thousands, of these fun holidays out there, it is somewhat impossible to do something special for them all. However, it is possible to choose a few favorites (I’m a big fan of Eat What You Want Day, personally), and celebrate them for all they’re worth. And one of those holidays we definitely think is worth honoring is coming up this Sunday – National Lollipop Day!

Don’t worry; this won’t be an expensive holiday. You don’t need to buy a mountain of presents, or prepare a 6-course feast. All you need to do is grab a few suckers and sweeten up your weekend one lick at a time. Haven’t had a lollipop in a while and aren’t sure what’s out there? Browse our extensive selection of yummy lollipops and pick a few favorites!
